Abstract
This review aims to address the specific challenges of forest decline in Mediterranean Fagaceae ecosystems driven by the alien invasive Phytophthora cinnamomi and global changes. In a scenario of climate change and anthropic pressure, this review seeks to offer a comprehensive overview of the current state of P.cinnamomi invasion, focusing on its biology, ecology and epidemiology in different Mediterranean forest ecosystems, and providing an update on diagnosis, impact and current management measures.
